Every time I start a video I end up going to get my own meal to eat along with the video. It's now become a tradition with my partner to sit and watch while we eat a meal 😅
I make a meal then come and sit and watch. I'm always so eager to see what Mike has been up to. I love when a new video comes out because I really love to eat and watch :D
Big respect for blurring out the person in the background at the noodle place tbh. Person just trying to enjoy a meal in peace and you never know with social media. Some person might try to start a fight because someone glanced at you wrong for a split second.
@@leeman4499 According to the Americans it's the worst there it's ever been for cost of living. Many who have compared the prices between the US and AUS have shown Australia to still be much cheaper when you take expected wages for the same job into account. Remember that they are exploited as workers in the US still.
In Australia, we're very proud of our fresh seafood and local beef/lamb/kangaroo 👍 Notice to tourists though, Australian spice heat levels are much higher than American levels! Because of our wonderful Asian Australian population we've got used to Asian spices 😁 Authentic Asian flavours, Australian quality ingredients 👍
Being Melbournian, I can confirm our actual "chinatown" is only one street, but basically the entire CBD is full of decent chinese restaurants. Quite a few of the places shown in Mike's video are not actually in chinatown proper, but around the CBD. Post edit: CBD herein is Central Business District, not cannabidiol 🤣
Mikey, aussie here. If you really liked the Pineapple Fritter from McDonalds Australia, treat yourself to Red Rooster and try their Pineapple Fritter, its worlds better, especially with a little bit of their gravy
The land was gifted to the people of Melbourne by Queen Victoria, hence the name. The fish market is one of the largest retail fish markets anywhere, the the zinc panelled deli area was built in the 1920's and is registered with our National Trust. The market is a living treasure for all of us.
Thank you for this video. I'm from Australia and visit Melbourne sometimes, but I didn't know where to go for food because there's so many options! You've helped me narrow it down. 😊
Mikey, been awhile since I commented. I loved the different places and the food. The fish dishes seemed very nice. You get to eat at the nicest places with the most established food. Thank you for showing another food video. ❤🎉😊
The fish he ate was called a Murray Codd, it’s a borderline endangered species here due to the introduction of the European Carp, so not a lot of places sell it and most of us Aussies will catch and release it, although they are well known for being amazingly beautiful to eat, and the Chocolate powder on his icecream is called Milo, is a chocolatey, Malty course powder that you can mix with milk and make a milkshake, make a hot Chocolate, it’s a Aussie favourite icecream topping, not exactly gourmet, but it’s Australian Nostalgia at at its finest and made me smile.
Farmed cod mate, not sure if carp have anything to do with our cod numbers. All I know is our cod numbers are 1000% better than they used to be but that would have to do with fisheries. They are doing a fantastic job 😊
LOL! I was wondering who else was baffled by this video. You go to Australia to eat Chinese food, honestly I stopped watching after he left the market.
@@TsunamiWombat I can see you don't know much about foods from other countries, perhaps some research will enlighten you or do you go on vacation to other countries to eat at Taco Bell during your stay? Australia is know for their own style of fantastic beef and seafood as you saw him at the market place (if you even saw the video) and yes if he's there eat LOCAL food not the same thing over and over.
20 years ago when I visited Melbourne it was mostly Italian & Greek, China town wasn't that established but now it looks like a good place to visit & eat again plenty of choices of different restaurants & the variety of foods from many different nationalities.
Went to Fortune Alley, they did not know you had even been there, bless. I swear I went to the same place for 20 years and only the manager knew I had been going there for that long.
Really? I'm sorry but other than the first 5 min at the market the rest is Mikey having his usual every day Chinese food, nothing "Australian" about this.
Australian Vietnamese here. We have a large Vietnamese community with restaurants in the western and south-east Melbourne suburbs. Would highly recommend to go either Footscray or sunshine in west, or Springvale in south-east for authentic Vietnamese food. 🙏
I don’t know what happened but my subscription was some how removed from your channel. Last night I thought to myself that I hadn’t seen your videos in a while and got worried. So I searched strictly dumplings and seen what happened. I’m glad to be back!
I was in Melbourne for a couple of years so seeing this video makes me miss Melbourne and QVM. I miss walking around the CBD and eating out even though it was expensive for student 😂
Great that you came to Australia wishing you a great foodie experience 😋. Lots of great eateries on the outside of Chinatown Melbourne 😋😋😋. Adelaide also has a Great foodie experience.
We normally keep eggs refrigerated here in Australia to. Usually the only places you’ll find they aren’t, are ethnically owned shops. Be it Indian, Chinese, Vietnamese etc.
Mike, do you think “premium Australian produce” moniker lives up to the hype..? Do you feel that they are of noticably superior quality vs the American counterparts 😊..? Somewhat off-topic here, did you eat any Indonesian cuisine there.? You found it as good as the one you have in Jakarta..?😊 It should of course given its proximity to Aus.

Me and my Ex before this last one would do the same thing. He tried doing this with me, but stopped, and I still do. It's the tradition
I make a meal then come and sit and watch. I'm always so eager to see what Mike has been up to. I love when a new video comes out because I really love to eat and watch :D
Yooooo me toooo some how the food i ate looks good and i have a big appetite because of his videos
Glad I’m not the only one! 😆
Fuggyeah

He doesn't always blur people out. I think he does where feasible.
Welcome again t Australia it is expensive but we love seeing famous you tubers come to Australia 🇦🇺 ❤
Actually US and London is a lot more expensive, Aus is not that expensive any longer
@@daveb5374as an Australian, it’s the most unliveable this country has ever been. I doubt UK or US residents have it worse.
@@leeman4499 Have you been to the US recently?

So glad to see you experiencing Melbourne! We have so much amazing food and restaurants here, hope you enjoy your time x
I love our Queen Victoria Market, it's so awesome! So many different cuisines to choose from 😍

Out of curiosity, what does kangaroo meat taste like? Any similarities to other cuts of meat?
@@KingDennisJensen It's somewhat similar to venison in that it's very lean and not too gamy in my experience
Unfortunately it's all halal. Some people can't eat that

Exactly
cbd is one helluva drug
Well… it IS Melbourne.
Pretty much the food capital of Australia. Sydney has some very good spots too
I was thinking the same, he's not in Chinatown! It's a very long street though lol
Mikey, aussie here. If you really liked the Pineapple Fritter from McDonalds Australia, treat yourself to Red Rooster and try their Pineapple Fritter, its worlds better, especially with a little bit of their gravy
Welcome Mike! Hope you enjoy yourself and get to explore other areas of Australia
Welcome to Melbourne ma man! We're so lucky to have you here!!
Anytime Mike uploads, its a good day! Man's living the dream.
For sure. !!! And I feel like he's worked hard for what he's got.😊

I love it when Mikey says "treemendous" 😆 Market tours are the best!!!
Vic Market is my favourite place to come and chill on a beautiful day in Melbourne, it has the best produce in the CDB!
Thank you for this video. I'm from Australia and visit Melbourne sometimes, but I didn't know where to go for food because there's so many options! You've helped me narrow it down. 😊
Hope you had a lovely time in Melbourne Mikey!
I'm so happy you got to experience my local market
Next time check out Springvale, Prahran, Footscray and Dandenong Markets!
It's almost a crime he didn't go to Springvale or Glen Waverley! The best Asian food
We are spoiled when it comes to our seafood, glad you enjoyed it!
That fish soup place looks incredible
Mikey, been awhile since I commented. I loved the different places and the food. The fish dishes seemed very nice. You get to eat at the nicest places with the most established food. Thank you for showing another food video. ❤🎉😊
Thanks for visiting Australia mate 👍🏻 good to have you here! Enjoy your time.
Aww Queen Victoria Markets. I miss Melbourne. I’m so happy you finally came to Australia Mikey. Hope you enjoyed yourself here.✌🏾🫶🏾
Hi Chong Qing is my favourite place for noodles. Pork mince with chickpeas and a fried egg 👌

We need to get rid of carp to save the Murray Cod
Farmed cod mate, not sure if carp have anything to do with our cod numbers.
All I know is our cod numbers are 1000% better than they used to be but that would have to do with fisheries.
They are doing a fantastic job 😊
i've been waiting for this guy to go to Melbourne for so long, now i have good idea of some places to go to next time i'm in Melb
Glad you enjoyed Melbourne i hope you will come back we really do have some amazing food here 🥰☺️
I'M SO HAPPY YOU'RE IN MY CITY
The Jackman and McRoss bakery in Battery Point sell the best scallop pie in all of Tassie
Dumpling game in Melbourne is crazy good there are awesome dumplings all over the city
So weird - but also amazing - to see you eating in Aussie venues!
Mate, I love it that you came down under. I hope you totally enjoy Melbourne.
Mike inspired me to go to China to check out their Australia town.
This should be a legit thing, but yet sounds SO wrong 🤣
there's no such thing as Austrailia towns because that would require people leaving Austrailia. Which is illegal.
LOL! I was wondering who else was baffled by this video. You go to Australia to eat Chinese food, honestly I stopped watching after he left the market.
@@marilynalvarez9951 What's he supposed to eat, Kangaroo and fairy bread?

Hi Mikey, I cooked your beef brisket noodle soup recipe! Best instructions, so delicious!!! Hope you enjoyed Melb and Tas xx😋😋
Mikey, what determines which people in the background get blurred out?
I always go the mussels stall in QVM whenever I go to Melbourne.
Loving this Melbourne content!
That mussel place is my fave 🤤
Everything looks delicious! 😋
"I'm actually heading to Tasmania tomorrow"
*screams in Tasmanian*
Giddy On Up?
That’s what I’m about to do to start my Day😋🍽
Do some people ask you to blur them? I notice that at times, but only random groups or individuals.
AHHHHHHHH YOU CAME TO MY CITY!
Mine too 🤟
Me too :)
Welcome to the best city in the world mate! ❤
Welcome to Melbourne Australia!!! Umm I hope to bump into you and have a great meal while you’re here☺️☺️☺️
This was in Jan/feb
So amazing
20 years ago when I visited Melbourne it was mostly Italian & Greek, China town wasn't that established but now it looks like a good place to visit & eat again plenty of choices of different restaurants & the variety of foods from many different nationalities.
Although VIC Market is good, South Melbourne Market is the better Market for ready to eat foods, but our Chinatown is definitely amazing
Can’t wait to see where you go to next in Aussie!❤
It's called Australia. An Aussie is a person who was born here or who has citizenship.
Went to Fortune Alley, they did not know you had even been there, bless. I swear I went to the same place for 20 years and only the manager knew I had been going there for that long.
Ahhh food is life.
Those mussels are huge!
I want those mussels in that sauce omg they look so good
Awesome! Love your videos Mike ❤❤❤❤❤
This food tour looks amazing the food looks hearty and delicious 😋
Yummy
Really? I'm sorry but other than the first 5 min at the market the rest is Mikey having his usual every day Chinese food, nothing "Australian" about this.
Welcome to Melbourne 😊
You need to come to Adelaide and try the Central Markets here after Tasmania
Australian Vietnamese here. We have a large Vietnamese community with restaurants in the western and south-east Melbourne suburbs. Would highly recommend to go either Footscray or sunshine in west, or Springvale in south-east for authentic Vietnamese food. 🙏
Couldn't agree more
Yesss siirrrrrrrr🎉🎉🎉
Next time you’re in Melbs try go to Flower Drum. A little expensive but among the best Chinese food and food in general I’ve had.
I don’t know what happened but my subscription was some how removed from your channel. Last night I thought to myself that I hadn’t seen your videos in a while and got worried. So I searched strictly dumplings and seen what happened. I’m glad to be back!
Melbourne's amazing on the food scene. You can walk down one street and have 5 to 7 national cuisines all represented.
Dude I was like yelling “get a scallop pie for the love of God!” 😂
Hi Mike it's Raynboe. Please come to Adelaide South Australia and do a food review. We have a market and some great restaurants here.
Mate this was in late jan/early feb
Great video!
Nice array of food.
It looks so clean
I was in Melbourne for a couple of years so seeing this video makes me miss Melbourne and QVM. I miss walking around the CBD and eating out even though it was expensive for student 😂
Welcome to Melbourne! I actually walked past Fishing Season last weekend and thought it looked really interesting, I'll have to try it out!
How do you not have Gout Mike! How???!! 😂
Why? You want to,
I miss Melbourne! Used to live there few years ago
Have you ever been to Camden Market or Borough Market in London?? sooo good!!! it's all updated now
Welcome to Melbourne
We love your video ❤ and I never had Mussels. L.o.l and Food look Delicious 😋
I only just started, but god damn I hope to god you tried the jam (jelly) donuts from the tram/trolley vendor at the markets!!
nice, you hot some good spots there.
Adding to must to do list. Thank you for sharing Mike. Great finds.
Hey guys, little sondage : What is your favorite protein crooked on BBQ ?
Thank you.
❤
Great that you came to Australia wishing you a great foodie experience 😋. Lots of great eateries on the outside of Chinatown Melbourne 😋😋😋. Adelaide also has a Great foodie experience.
I love the fish soup
This is the reason I can’t lose weight. There’s some much great food in Melbourne 😋
A lot of seafood you can get fresh in aus and nz especially mussels in most countdowns
I wished I got a chance to see you Mike here at Melbourne.
Was in this market in November just gone! And it was amazing 👍🏼😁
oh welcome to m y home town!
You need to watch some Murray cod videos and see how much they grow to.
Love your videos
❤
I live in tassie ik your going to bruny island, Salamanca market
❤ hi Mike. Lots of love from Asha n Reagan from Trenancemanor Phoenix Durban South Africa
Australian dumplings! 🤘🇭🇲🤘
You gotta visit Boxhill in Melbourne East for many asian cuisines
We normally keep eggs refrigerated here in Australia to. Usually the only places you’ll find they aren’t, are ethnically owned shops. Be it Indian, Chinese, Vietnamese etc.
✌️❤️ great video
Just asking is this the first time in Oz I watch and follow a lot of your posts
Please come to Perth Western Australia!
Great clips as always but disappointed you never show us the cost of each product you devour !!
Mike, do you think “premium Australian produce” moniker lives up to the hype..?
Do you feel that they are of noticably superior quality vs the American counterparts 😊..?
Somewhat off-topic here, did you eat any Indonesian cuisine there.? You found it as good as the one you have in Jakarta..?😊
It should of course given its proximity to Aus.
How could you miss the beloved jam donut truck at queenvic?
My home country ❤
First here 🔥
